Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Enable a set of Clippy lints: 'ptr_as_ptr', 'ptr_cast_constness',
'as_ptr_cast_mut', 'as_underscore', 'cast_lossless' and 'ref_as_ptr'.
These are intended to avoid type casts with the 'as' operator, which
are quite powerful, into restricted variants that are less powerful
and thus should help to avoid mistakes.
- Remove the 'author' key now that most instances were moved to the
plural one in the previous cycle.
'kernel' crate:
- New 'bug' module: add 'warn_on!' macro which reuses the existing
'BUG'/'WARN' infrastructure, i.e. it respects the usual sysctls and
kernel parameters:
warn_on!(value == 42);
To avoid duplicating the assembly code, the same strategy is followed
as for the static branch code in order to share the assembly between
both C and Rust. This required a few rearrangements on C arch headers
-- the existing C macros should still generate the same outputs, thus
no functional change expected there.
- 'workqueue' module: add delayed work items, including a 'DelayedWork'
struct, a 'impl_has_delayed_work!' macro and an 'enqueue_delayed'
method, e.g.:
/// Enqueue the struct for execution on the system workqueue,
/// where its value will be printed 42 jiffies later.
fn print_later(value: Arc<MyStruct>) {
let _ = workqueue::system().enqueue_delayed(value, 42);
}
- New 'bits' module: add support for 'bit' and 'genmask' functions,
with runtime- and compile-time variants, e.g.:
static_assert!(0b00010000 == bit_u8(4));
static_assert!(0b00011110 == genmask_u8(1..=4));
assert!(checked_bit_u32(u32::BITS).is_none());
- 'uaccess' module: add 'UserSliceReader::strcpy_into_buf', which reads
NUL-terminated strings from userspace into a '&CStr'.
Introduce 'UserPtr' newtype, similar in purpose to '__user' in C, to
minimize mistakes handling userspace pointers, including mixing them
up with integers and leaking them via the 'Debug' trait. Add it to
the prelude, too.
- Start preparations for the replacement of our custom 'CStr' type
with the analogous type in the 'core' standard library. This will
take place across several cycles to make it easier. For this one,
it includes a new 'fmt' module, using upstream method names and some
other cleanups.
Replace 'fmt!' with a re-export, which helps Clippy lint properly,
and clean up the found 'uninlined-format-args' instances.
- 'dma' module:
- Clarify wording and be consistent in 'coherent' nomenclature.
- Convert the 'read!()' and 'write!()' macros to return a 'Result'.
- Add 'as_slice()', 'write()' methods in 'CoherentAllocation'.
- Expose 'count()' and 'size()' in 'CoherentAllocation' and add the
corresponding type invariants.
- Implement 'CoherentAllocation::dma_handle_with_offset()'.
- 'time' module:
- Make 'Instant' generic over clock source. This allows the compiler
to assert that arithmetic expressions involving the 'Instant' use
'Instants' based on the same clock source.
- Make 'HrTimer' generic over the timer mode. 'HrTimer' timers take a
'Duration' or an 'Instant' when setting the expiry time, depending
on the timer mode. With this change, the compiler can check the
type matches the timer mode.
- Add an abstraction for 'fsleep'. 'fsleep' is a flexible sleep
function that will select an appropriate sleep method depending on
the requested sleep time.
- Avoid 64-bit divisions on 32-bit hardware when calculating
timestamps.
- Seal the 'HrTimerMode' trait. This prevents users of the
'HrTimerMode' from implementing the trait on their own types.
- Pass the correct timer mode ID to 'hrtimer_start_range_ns()'.
- 'list' module: remove 'OFFSET' constants, allowing to remove pointer
arithmetic; now 'impl_list_item!' invokes 'impl_has_list_links!' or
'impl_has_list_links_self_ptr!'. Other simplifications too.
- 'types' module: remove 'ForeignOwnable::PointedTo' in favor of a
constant, which avoids exposing the type of the opaque pointer, and
require 'into_foreign' to return non-null.
Remove the 'Either<L, R>' type as well. It is unused, and we want to
encourage the use of custom enums for concrete use cases.
- 'sync' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Arc' types
to allow them to be used in generic APIs.
- 'alloc' module: implement 'Borrow' and 'BorrowMut' for 'Box<T, A>';
and 'Borrow', 'BorrowMut' and 'Default' for 'Vec<T, A>'.
- 'Opaque' type: add 'cast_from' method to perform a restricted cast
that cannot change the inner type and use it in callers of
'container_of!'. Rename 'raw_get' to 'cast_into' to match it.
- 'rbtree' module: add 'is_empty' method.
- 'sync' module: new 'aref' submodule to hold 'AlwaysRefCounted' and
'ARef', which are moved from the too general 'types' module which we
want to reduce or eventually remove. Also fix a safety comment in
'static_lock_class'.
'pin-init' crate:
- Add 'impl<T, E> [Pin]Init<T, E> for Result<T, E>', so results are now
(pin-)initializers.
- Add 'Zeroable::init_zeroed()' that delegates to 'init_zeroed()'.
- New 'zeroed()', a safe version of 'mem::zeroed()' and also provide
it via 'Zeroable::zeroed()'.
- Implement 'Zeroable' for 'Option<&T>', 'Option<&mut T>' and for
'Option<[unsafe] [extern "abi"] fn(...args...) -> ret>' for '"Rust"'
and '"C"' ABIs and up to 20 arguments.
- Changed blanket impls of 'Init' and 'PinInit' from 'impl<T, E>
[Pin]Init<T, E> for T' to 'impl<T> [Pin]Init<T> for T'.
- Renamed 'zeroed()' to 'init_zeroed()'.
- Upstream dev news: improve CI more to deny warnings, use
'--all-targets'. Check the synchronization status of the two '-next'
branches in upstream and the kernel.

Rather than export a macro that delegates to `core::format_args`, simply
re-export `core::format_args` as `fmt` from the prelude. This exposes
clippy warnings which were previously obscured by this macro, such as:
warning: variables can be used directly in the `format!` string
--> ../drivers/cpufreq/rcpufreq_dt.rs:21:43

Thus fix them in the same commit. This could possibly be fixed in two
stages, but the diff is small enough (outside of kernel/str.rs) that I
hope it can be taken in a single commit.

Use a consistent `# Examples` heading in rustdoc across the codebase.
Some modules previously used `## Examples` (even when they should be

Update OPP FFI callback signatures to use `c_int` from the `kernel::prelude`,
instead of accessing it via `kernel::ffi::c_int`.
Although these types are defined in a crate named `ffi`, they are re-exported
via the `kernel::prelude` and should be used from there. This aligns with the
Rust-for-Linux coding guidelines and ensures ABI correctness when interfacing
with C code.

In Rust 1.51.0, Clippy introduced the `ptr_as_ptr` lint [1]:
> Though `as` casts between raw pointers are not terrible,
> `pointer::cast` is safer because it cannot accidentally change the
> pointer's mutability, nor cast the pointer to other types like `usize`.
There are a few classes of changes required:
- Modules generated by bindgen are marked
`#[allow(clippy::ptr_as_ptr)]`.
- Inferred casts (` as _`) are replaced with `.cast()`.
- Ascribed casts (` as *... T`) are replaced with `.cast::<T>()`.
- Multistep casts from references (` as *const _ as *const T`) are
replaced with `core::ptr::from_ref(&x).cast()` with or without `::<T>`
according to the previous rules. The `core::ptr::from_ref` call is
required because `(x as *const _).cast::<T>()` results in inference
failure.
- Native literal C strings are replaced with `c_str!().as_char_ptr()`.
- `*mut *mut T as _` is replaced with `let *mut *const T = (*mut *mut
T)`.cast();` since pointer to pointer can be confusing.
Apply these changes and enable the lint -- no functional change
intended.

Move the `#[cfg(CONFIG_OF)]` attribute to the top of the documentation test
block and hide it. This applies the condition to the entire test and improves
readability.
Placing configuration flags like `CONFIG_OF` at the top serves as a clear
indicator of the conditions under which the example is valid, effectively
acting like configuration metadata for the example itself.
